Free Theatre Christchurch is New Zealand’s longest running producer of avant-garde theatre. In the 40+ years since it was established in 1979 Free Theatre has been fulfilling its purpose in the community as a performance laboratory where artists of all types, both emerging and established and from a diversity of backgrounds, collaborate to transform spaces, educate aspiring performers and create innovative, high quality new experiences for our audiences (www.freetheatre.org.nz)

“The rigorous testing out of ideas, of stretching the borders of the genre, a strong commitment to engaging the audience's mind and senses make the Free Theatre an important player in the international landscape of independent theatre companies."
Professor Dr Thea Brejzek (University of Technology Sydney)
